New methods of microbiological identification using MALDI-TOF.
Rapid diagnosis of pathogens is decisive to guarantee adequate therapy in infections: culture methods are precise and sensitive, but rather slow. New resources are available to enable faster diagnosis, and the most promising is MALDI-TOF technology: mass spectrometry applied to microbiological diagnosis. Times as fast as 10 to 15 minutes to etiological diagnosis are possible after a positive bl...
متن کاملAccuPRO-ID® Bacterical Identification Using MALDI-TOF Technology
Charles River AccuPRO-ID®, the first practical proteotypic identification method, utilizes matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. For industries that are required to identify microorganisms on a regular basis, the ideal technology is one that is accurate, reproducible, fast, and inexpensive. MALDI-TOF technology is less dependent on growth cond...
متن کاملActinobaculum schaalii: identification with MALDI-TOF
Actinobaculum schaalii is an emerging uropathogen. So far, its identification has been performed with 16S rRNA gene sequencing or PCR. The diagnosis has often been delayed due to fastidious growth and identification problems. Eleven clinical isolates of A. schaalii from bloodstream infections that were initially identified with 16S rRNA sequencing analysis were recovered and later identified wi...
متن کاملIdentification of Candida species isolated from vulvovaginitis in Mashhad, Iran by Use of MALDI-TOF MS
Background and Purpose Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common problem in women. The purpose of this study was to identify of Candida species isolated from vulvovaginitis woman suffering vulvovaginitis refered to Ghaem Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, by use of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Materials and Methods The 65 clinical samples isolated from Vulvovaginitis women were collected in...
متن کاملIdentification of disulfide-containing chemical cross-links in proteins using MALDI-TOF/TOF-mass spectrometry.
Cross-linking can be used to identify spatial relationships between amino acids in proteins or protein complexes. A rapid and sensitive method for identifying the site of protein cross-linking using dithiobis(sulfosuccinimidyl propionate) (DTSSP) is presented and illustrated with experiments using murine cortactin, actin and acyl-CoA thioesterase. A characteristic 66 Da doublet, which arises fr...
